Description
Update: Original sketch is up on my blog in case you would like to see: [link]This piece is about a world where there are these creatures that live in the water, but if they break the surface they become paralyzed by fear because they are... really stupid.
There are also these little land dwelling monsters that move into the water creatures and make them their homes.
It was kind of a weird idea I had while doodling in a coffee shop. Soon after I realized this kind of parallels my current frustrations of finding my own place to live. The apartment I wanted had restrictions and I could not move in. It has made it difficult for me to look for anything else as I fell in love with that apartment. But anywho, I'm looking into some other options now.
I just think it would be cool if we could toss a line and easily find a new place to live.
I worked on this during a few live stream sessions, thanks to all who stopped in to check it out, I will also post the original sketch soon, if anyone is interested.

That's a really cute execution of an interesting concept. Sounds and looks almost like it should be from an awesomely quirky children's book.

That is adorable. The concept is very creative; I especially like the mustachiod moose tower. The vibrant colors look fantastic as well.
Congrats on the DD, and I hope that your finding a place to live is going well.

You're quite welcome. :3 That's a tough decision to choose between your hometown or the city... For me, I would have a hard time deciding since I love exploring new places but I also love familiarity.

ohh, i love the concept! when i first looked at this i interperetted it totally differently: that the little orange guy was fishing not aware that his perch had in fact just caught it's own dinner, and the title was a clever twisted double-entendre, but i like your idea just as well. much cuter! ^^"
